Better Than Expected Korean Food
I didn’t expect much from Stone Korean Kitchen, but it turned out to be better than I expected! I really enjoyed the chicken ginseng soup.

Decent Food, Poor Patio Service
My experience at this restaurant was mixed. The food was decent, earning a food score of 4. However, the service was disappointing. They never open the connected patio, even on nice days, and were rude when I asked to sit outside. I suggest they just close the patio if it's not going to be utilized. The atmosphere score was 2.

Authentic Korean Food Experience!
As an exchange student, I had a proper Korean meal after a long time. If I come back to San Francisco, I want to visit again!

Great Service and Experience!
I picked this place on a whim and really enjoyed the service and experience. There were plenty of little bites plus the meal. It's worth a try, and I noticed several regulars come in while I was there.

Excellent Food and Service!
My experience at this restaurant was excellent! The food was fantastic, especially the Kimchi fried rice with spicy pork. A helpful tip: stir the rice for a few minutes when it arrives in the stone bowl to prevent it from burning. I also really enjoyed their banchan. The service was impressively fast, even during the lunch rush, and the staff were attentive. The prices were very fair, and the gyoza was quite good. I'm curious to try their dubu next time. Overall, I'll definitely be back and will bring my coworkers. This place is so good!

Delicious Food, But Check Hours
My lunch experience was quite positive regarding the food. The lunch there was delicious. However, there was an issue with their operating hours. We arrived shortly after 6 pm on a Thursday, expecting them to be open, but they were closed.

Underrated Korean Gem Near Embarcadero
I discovered a hidden gem Korean food spot near the Embarcadero. My experience was very positive; I ordered the spicy pork bibimbap, which was delicious, and the ban chan were decent. The service was good, and the prices were not too bad. It's challenging to find solid Korean food in this area, and I believe this mom and pop establishment is underrated and not well-marketed.

Mixed Feelings on Korean Favorites
My experience at the restaurant was a mix of hits and misses. The Bibimbap, spicy pork, and soon du bu were tasty, but the bugolgi and kalbi were a little tough. I also felt like the duk bok ki was a bit too undercooked. The restaurant itself felt cold and could use some better lighting.

Delicious Korean Food, Tricky Location
My experience at this restaurant was centered around the great and delicious Korean food. However, finding the restaurant was quite difficult as it's located in a corner behind the building. The staff's English proficiency was limited, which made communication a bit challenging. I would recommend this place for a quick lunch.
